Summary

Every small stone has an history and a legend behind it. The stories being told about people and places truly fascinate me. I realized that there is so much to be seen and each layer of civilizations amazed me. Everything is connected.

I was born in France and moved to Israel in 1983. I have been a licensed tour guide since 1991. I am married to a man named Oded whom I met in London and have a daughter named Ella, as well as a dog and a cat.

I live in a Bauhaus style building in Tel-Aviv, the White City and because of it became interested in this new development financed by the Unesco World Heritage Committee to renovate the International Style houses built in the 1920s.

My passion for tour guiding started with my need to belong to this land and to feel comfortable wherever I go. I have been guiding all over the country since then and from 1996 I am mainly working as a private tour guide, driving my own van as I love the intimacy of a small group.

Visitors coming to Israel have a specific need to understand this country and to get a better idea of what is going on here. I love that and this is my task to entertain them and to give a relevant and brighter picture of this so much talked about country.

My main interest while on a tour is archaeology, history and religion, while people, tradition and leisure attract me as well.

I have been touring with a very known French journalist on a ‘’Food and Wine’’ tour. Israel is called the land of milk and honey and offers a great opportunity for an outstanding wine and food industry. The dynamism of the country makes it one of the best place to enjoy a great holidays for all kind of needs.
